@mattly That's such a kind tip and offer, thank you! I may take you up on it!
I've had a Bitwig license for a few years and have dipped my toe in a few times and enjoyed it, but have always been doing "other things" that required me to abandon it.
But I've recently come to a way of performing that makes use of loads of samplers + session view in Ableton using the Push, so now that the show I was prepping is over, I have some free time and I'm pretty determined to perform in Bitwig from now on!
@mattly Did you find a massive performance difference leaving Ableton? So far it's looking like Bitwig may be WAY better behaved, at least on Windows.
(And of course the idea that I could leave Windows behind and run it natively on Linux is GLORIOUS.)
